The experience I gain from this job is valuable for my future
Morgan McKinley has a transparent and defined career management programme called Career Pathways. This includes roles, responsibilities, key objectives and behavioural / technical competences and a clearly defined pathway to leadership. The Career Pathways programme has recently been re-engineered and is now aligned to their Learning and Development Strategy called iLearn, which is based on five key principles of learning: personal development is personal, everyone at Morgan McKinley has their own iLearn Personal Development Plan, constructive feedback plays a pivotal role in building talents, everyone can broaden their horizons, everyone must take responsibility for their own career, everyone is an expert and everyone can transfer their knowledge to each other. The company's learning and development initiatives reflect these principles and provide a mix of appropriate interventions to support employee development. They launched their Management Development Programme in 2013. This is run by an external supplier and is accredited by the Chartered Management Institute. The programme is run over an 8-month period and includes six days classroom training on all aspects of management and leadership. The programme is offered to both existing team leaders and to high potential individuals who are keen to develop their skills further and are on a fast-track programme. The programme includes mandatory 360o feedback and the opportunity to work with an internal mentor and/or coach.
